2.4 SS wont start
I was getting a tuned at a buddy of mine that is on the forum...we did a tranny tune...and after he was done i decide to take out for a spin around the block and all sudden i went down the street at 20 mph and everything sshutoff..i was stepping on the pedal and no go..power steer was out....and i put it in park..We have no idea whats wrong ...buddy mike could have think its the fuel pump cause when we started it he doesnt here it and their is fuel pressure and everything..so i called 1800 chev or something and its getting it towed now to a dealership around his way and i have warranty still so i hope its nothing serous..their not gonna look at it till monday..which kinda sucks cause the dealership aorund his way and i live 1hr away from him...what do u guys think ? whats the problem?

Did you try flashing the stock tune back on and seeing if it worked? I had somthing like that happan before, flashed it back to stock and it worked. It was something in the tune that caused it not to work right. The only thing with tuning automatics is it takes like 4 mins to flash a tune 
it sucks!
it sucks!

That's no good, that's the only thing I'm worried about but like REDFOCZ said, he's done a few tunes so he's pretty smart about the tunning side....but coming from me, I can't help you out. Also did you check fuses? And would it even begin to turn over, and don't think you can do anything now since it's at the dealer.

I know when that happan to mine, it started up with the stock tune but it threw a strange code so I took it to the dealer, and they said the had to do a crank relearn to make it go away. :dunno:I hope it is something simple though.

really the only difference is in the shift properties...under force motor current. the 07 has only positive when the 06 has + and -....that the only difference it looks like
